Charlie Fuchs:
The old saying goes, “A few bad apples spoil the bunch.” It could not be more true when you are thinking about getting into MLM. There are so many legitimate opportunities that have been spoiled by some MLM scams giving the business opportunity a bad name. Yes, there are legitimate MLM opportunities out there, you just need to be able to tell the difference between the good businesses and the MLM scams.
MLM is a legitimate business model, but some people have chosen to create MLM scams from this model. You really can, with a lot of work, make good money with MLM, which is a multi-level marketing business model. Also known as network marketing, you have an upline and build a downline while selling unique services or products. The problem is, while this model is legitmate, there are a lot of people creating MLM scams and illegal schemes that have smeared the MLM name.
